Hi there, I'm looking for ShareWare that could allow me to a specific sector
	from a disk without regard for errors (brute force). I have a disk that
	is trashed that I keep getting 'Unable to find valid data mark' errors
	however, this sector happens to reside right in the middle of a file
	that I have to get to. If anyone has any ideas or can email me some
	software to help it would be appreciated. (I have read about PatchDisk.
	Is it any good?). Also, if anyone has a list of good inexpensive 
	software (free or shareware) I would like a copy of the list so I
	could chase down some of the software on it if I like it. I'm new
	to the Mac (6 months... is that new??) and don't have alot of stuff
	yet.

Thanks in advance...
